I found it very interesting that "Los Tigres del Norte" made a song called "Las Mujeres de Juarez". I know very well who the "Tigres del Norte" are for I have many friends and coworkers who listen to their music. I know that they are extremely popular and have made many songs about popular narco traffickers of Mexico. I think it is wonderful that they are aware of the situation and want to make it aware to people who listen to their music, the Mexican population as well as Mexican Americans who listen to their songs. Just a side note Los Tigres may want to be careful because just as Valentin Elizalde and lead singer of the popular durangense group Kpaz de la sierra was recently assasinated for singing about certain narcos in their music they could be at risk for vengeance from the killers of the women of Juarez. Sometimes the criminals like the publicity, other times they do no

Hola Caro,
Yo creo que tienes razon en que los Tigres del Norte deberian ser mas cautelosos. Ya ha abido muchos muertos en el medio del espectaculo por cantar cansiones en contra de los narcos. Y es una lastima que tengan que morir solo por expresar su punto de vista. Ojala que el gobierno Mexicano haga algo pronto y proteja al pueblo, cantantes o no.
